Unless you have been living under a rock, I know you had to hear about Kobe dropping a homophobic slur during last night’s game. Just to recap Kobe mouthed the words,
“f**king f**got” Â , to a NBA referee last night after he was hit with a technical foul.
Earlier today Kobe released a statement saying:
“My actions were out of frustration during the heat of the game, period. “
He adds,
“The words expressed do NOT reflect my feelings towards the gay and lesbian communities and were NOT meant to offend anyone.â€
Although he never quite apologized for calling the ref a”f**king f**got”, I believe it was not his intent to gay bash anyone the way they are making it out to be .
This afternoon during an interview with ESPN radio, Kobe announced his decision to appeal the NBA fine.
It was reported by Forbes.com, Kobe made an estimated $48 million last year in salary and endorsements. So 100K shouldn’t hurt his pockets and may teach him a lesson.
so What he was mad, people say things out there mouth when there mad. Gays and Lesbian joke each other when they mad and call each other faggots. I know gay men that get mad and when they argue they call each other faggots. LOL
and he said what he felt, whats wrong with that, freedom of speech
